Phyllis Schlafly, founder of Eagle Forum in 1972, and the Eagle Forum Education & Legal Defense Fund, passed away today, September 5, 2016. America has lost one of her greatest conservative activists and a voice for America’s God given Constitutional freedoms. She has been in public service for her fellow Americans for over 70 years.

...She came to national attention when millions of copies of her self-published book, A Choice, Not an Echo, were distributed in support of Goldwater's 1964 presidential campaign.
